Swooshi - The frame acts as a spring, as it flexes, allows the wheel to roll forward and back, ultimately becoming a naturally interactive rocking chair.
This design has limited motion, only allowing for moderate flexibility in the chair's main spine. Rather than feet grating against the floor, the front feet are static, as the rear wheel rolls gently- you have a smooth "Swoosh" of motion both forward and back as you relax in the chair, similar yet beyond what you would experience in a rocking chair.

The MinuteMan Concept - This is a design for a competition with Local Motors. I have had a lot of fun designing this and sculpting these ideas. The {OPEN} configuration allows for a silky smooth ride on the highway. On the other hand, anyone who knows traffic in Boston knows that a short wheelbase is the best choice for navigating morning traffic around the Inner Harbor- in the {CLOSED} position each axle's individual electric motors work opposite of each other- shrinking your footprint.

CDesign Player/Sculpture - A freshening of the CD player- a fully dynamic exposed desk sculpture informed and inspired by classic record players, but finished in contemporary fit and feel. This is a place that a CD player could still thrive, despite iPod's current and growing world domination.
